Agfa Parat-I from 1963: my first camera sent on August 06, 2020 (23:00) by LucianoSerra.d. 39 comments, 1270 views.

1/10 f/4.2, ISO 400, hand held.

L'Agfa Parat I utilizza pellicola in formato 135 ed impressiona fotogrammi negativi di 18x24 mm. ottenendo... con una pellicola da 36 pose... 72 fotografie in formato verticale. Se si vuole scattare in orizzontale bisogna tenere in mano la fotocamera allo stesso modo in cui adesso invece scattiamo in verticale con le normali fotocamere. L'obiettivo... che di focale è 30 mm. corrisponde al suo "normale" ed equivale a circa 43 mm. nel formato 24x36. Non ha il telemetro e quindi la messa a fuoco è di tipo "a valutazione metrica" oppure si possono utilizzare i 3 simboli primo piano, persone intere e montagne (che in questo caso rappresentano l'infinito) impressi attorno all'obiettivo nella sua parte alta. L'otturatore ha 4 tempi: 1/30, 1/60, 1/125 più la posa B... mentre i diaframmi vanno da f 2,8 ad f 16. Dispone di slitta per il lampeggiatore con contatto caldo e può utilizzare il flash a lampadine, o i cubi flash con l'apposito adattatore, scattando a 1/30 mentre poi... con l'avvento dei lampeggiatori elettronici... può scattare con tutti i tempi avendo l'obiettivo dotato di otturatore centrale. Non è presente l'esposimetro e solitamente... come guida... si utilizzava la tabella che... in passato... era spesso impressa nella parte interna di molte delle scatoline di cartoncino che contenevano le pellicole. Questa macchinetta, visibile nella fotografia, mi fu regalata nel giugno 1965 dopo la promozione all'esame della 5° elementare e... funziona ancora. Ha un posto di riguardo... dove conservo il mio materiale fotografico... essendo la capostipite di tutte le attrezzature che ho posseduto nel tempo. Periodicamente apporto aggiornamenti che comportano cessioni e nuovi acquisti ma... questa Parat-I... rimarrà sempre qui... a ricordare il mio esordio nell'affascinante mondo della fotografia...

Throw the first stone those of us who have not taken our first steps with these "machines". Congratulations Luciano for paying tribute to old dear Agfa, as well as Kodak, Ferrania etc.

Memories of a past... that the present should not delete, thank you Luciano for your photo and for your caption helps us remember.
I started with an Agfa Instamatic, much simpler and with a system of cartridge rolls... memories that I still have.
A greeting

A memory of yesterday for a device that was honored.
Pure I started with a slightly newer Agfa, which I still keep.

Beautiful Luciano document.
Ealthly my first camera was an Agfa, I don't remember the model, but definitely not so particular and something cheap because it was given to me when I was still a child, anyway I kept it until 2006
Buon weekend
